Have you ever felt like you cannot find the energy or motivation to do the most basic tasks? Or felt like your brain will not shut off? Have you ever struggled with losing someone that you love and feel as if you will never make it out of the fog? Have you experienced a traumatic event and need help managing the thoughts and feelings that come up after the experience? Are you feeling stuck in your life, or just listless? Are you struggling with substance abuse and the impact of usage in your professional and personal life? Do you have a history of self-harm or self-harming thoughts? If any of the above questions resonated with you, I am here for you. I bring over ten years of clinical counseling experience focused on depression, anxiety, end-of-life, grief therapy, substance abuse, self-harming thoughts and attempts, insomnia, and trauma therapy. I am seasoned in case management and navigating medical crises in the hospital environment. I enjoy helping my patients and families navigate end-of-life care planning. I am trained in using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), brief CBT-I to treat Insomnia, and Guided Imagery to assist my patients with navigating a multitude of treatment needs. I am also certified in providing sexual assault survivor group counseling and psychoeducation. I love helping my patients see that they do have a purpose in this life and a reason to live it with happiness. I love seeing my clients learn techniques that they can independently use to continue to help themselves outside of the one-on-one time we have together. I find joy in seeing you succeed in your goals.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

My goal is for all of my clients to be able to use techniques learned in session to help find balance in their lives by alleviating feelings of depression and anxiety, help improve sleep and symptoms of pain, and learn to feel joy in their lives again after surviving trauma.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have a strong background in working with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, and trauma. I am also trained in working with clients experiencing mood disorders and individuals in crisis (self-harming thoughts).

My treatment methods

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

DBT helps people learn to manage difficult emotions and behaviors through Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Interpersonal Effectiveness, and Emotional Regulation strategies. I will teach you those strategies to handle intense emotional experiences and communicate better with others.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT helps people change their thinking and behavior to manage problems. I will help you identify negative thought patterns and learn how to respond to challenging thoughts/situations in a healthier manner.
